I made it home OK. I handed out the rest of my evangelism stuff (I brought 10 items) so I feel good about that. One of the drivers was like a little kid at Christmas when I gave him his candy, it was very sweet, made my whole day worth it.
Boss usually has Sunday off please please. I did decide to get a McDonald's coffee tomorrow morning because I don't need coffee after work. I tried to take a nap but could not. I did get some laundry going.
Today is SVU on ION not my favorite so no TV. I did decide I needed more Bible study. I have them in my vest at work. I need them in my backpack too. So I did that when I got home. My backpack is falling apart if I don't get one for my birthday (it's on my wish list) I will buy one. The one I have is holding up though.
I think one reason God put me with this boss I have a tendency to look for people's approval vs. His. She is very stingy with her approval and often highly critical so if I want encouragement I must look elsewhere, to Him. She is not a bad woman she is under a lot of pressure. I also suspect she has both OCD and ADD you can imagine how that goes; and no medication. Plus pressure from higher ups and a lot of drama in her personal life. I don't envy her, I don't hate her, I just wish she would forget about me sometimes.
The washer just scared the daylights out of me. I turned it on and it just sat there for about 3 minutes with me frantically praying before it decided to fill. That was scary! I had jeans in it.
With it this hot I feel like I can only wear a pair of jeans 2 days before I have to wash it because I am sweating in it every minute I am outside and that can be hours a day. So I have 4 jeans in there (thank you for all the clothes, Lord).
I need to figure out what I'm taking to CA. I have some cute shorts, those will go. I will wear a pair of jeans on the plane but haven't figured out which yet. I would like another pair of jeans, some leggings, t shirts, and 2 dresses (I will be there a week). I like to have all that packed well in advance, I always have.
When Ron and I were both working at non profits we had generous vacation time, so we took a week every year to visit his family in Houston, go to Galveston, etc. I packed well in advance and Ron said he would pack the night before.
But he ate at "Salmonella kitchen" in the Tenderloin and got food poisoning that day. I actually had to dope him up on my phenergan to get him on the plane (I had it for migraines). He was in no shape to pack, so I did it for him, and of course he wasn't happy. But after that he learned 1. Don't eat there right before a trip and 2. Pack your bag early. He didn't have much fun. He was pretty sick the whole time but I had plenty of phenergan and he was not drinking much back then so it was OK.
I already have the candy, some evangelism material. I have a sponsor ready to ship Bibles to Mom and Dad for me to hand out. I just need to get the OK from them.
Oh and when I get back (going to call them in a minute) I will tell you about the female co worker who is trying to move in with me. She is very lazy and on the verge of being fired. NO THANKS. I told her I am a nudist that did it.
Today handing out candy (fully clothed!) I had 2 guys who were a lot of fun. The drivers who know me expect the candy. They are happy to get it and understand my motivation because they have seen the material I hand out.
Today I had (more than) 2 guys who had never met me before. The first driver just gaped at me as I put the candy in his hand. "What is this?" I said "It's candy, for you." "Why?" "They call me the Candy Lady you can ask the other drivers about me" and I hopped off.
The second driver, on the way home, a route I don't take but runs and stops at the shared bus stop. He stopped, I got on, said "I'm not riding" (otherwise they shut the door!) and gave him the candy. He was ecstatic. "For me? Really?" and grinned from ear to ear. Both were a lot of fun.
For the unreached mocker you can do this yourself without Jesus material it is a lot of fun. For my Christians this is easy and fun. Get a tract or Scripture booklet (World Missionary Press link on the lower right hand corner of this page), stick it in a sandwich baggie (the kind that zips not the kind that folds) and a handful of "good" wrapped candy. You never know what kind of impact it may have.
I handed out 10 and could have done more. So I did more tonight to take tomorrow.
Oh Dad FREAKED when I mentioned having a sponsor ship Bibles to him. He says he has something for me to hand out, a lot of it. So I'll do that. I was sorry I upset him.
That's it for now.
